Historical context
This oval plate, designed by The Grindley Hotel Ware Co. Ltd, an English manufacturer founded in 1908 in Stoke-on-Trent, is part of a dinner service that once belonged to the restaurant of Montreal department store Dupuis Frères, as its logo indicates. Although the English manufacturer generally produces similar models for the hotel trade, the specific color of this object is unique to Dupuis Frères, making it a very special piece.
